Houlihan Lokey or Houlihan Lokey Howard & Zukin

Hello all,

This is actually my first post ever. I have a question regarding Houlihan Lokey. Is the preferred name for the company just Houlihan Lokey or Houlihan Lokey Howard & Zukin? Likewise, does the company prefer the abbreviation HL or HLHZ. I'm not sure if one name or abbreviation is considered more professional or "correct."
